Alley Cats, an entertainment franchise based in the US state of Texas, has contracted Creative Works to build a laser tag arena in its new facility, representing the third project the two companies have collaborated on.

Creative Works president Armando Lanuti said: “They wanted to do a different theme for their second location and they wanted to do something unique that really hadn’t been seen much in the laser tag side of things before. So we did a really cool custom steampunk theme for Alley Cats and another one of our clients at the same time. We collaborated amongst everybody to create a really cool looking theme for them.”

Upon entering the arena, players must navigate through brick and sheet metal barriers to square off against their opponents. Additionally, girders, barrels and podiums with moving propellers act as obstacles and improvised cover for players under siege. Custom airbrushed window murals line the walls with the silhouettes of Victorian-style buildings. A tall, ornate clock tower sits in the centre of the room as players weave around the prop during gameplay.
